so you might have noticed the snazzy new icon. it's up here courtesy of <ljuser="brigid">'s insomnia, kind-heartedness, and ability to hack my livejournal. it's a picture that my <a href="http://www.psychosis-studios.com">best friend in college</a> drew of me as a part of his weekly comic strip, <a href="http://www.psychosis-studios.com/trentandkay/">trent and kay</a>. this strip was published in one of tufts' newspapers, and it was really quite cool to wake up on thursday and see what sorts of things eugene had drawn, though my main (ok, only) purpose was to <a href="http://www.psychosis-studios.com/trentandkay/vault/v01i12.html">die</a>. in <a href="http://www.psychosis-studios.com/trentandkay/vault/v02i16.html">many </a><a href="http://www.psychosis-studios.com/trentandkay/vault/v01i15.html">different </a><a href="http://www.psychosis-studios.com/trentandkay/vault/v03i06.html">ways</a>. my crowning achievement was to grow <a href="http://www.psychosis-studios.com/trentandkay/vault/v01i24.html">really big</a>. though, even that didn't save me from those <a href="http://www.psychosis-studios.com/trentandkay/vault/v01i25.html">cruel bastards</a>.

learn more about plankton and see all of the strips he was in <a href="http://www.psychosis-studios.com/trentandkay/plankton.html">here</a>!

oh and if anyone out there still plays quake II, eugene made some <a href="http://www.psychosis-studios.com/psychodm/shots.html">really cool models</a> for the game.

even though it's been six years since we've been in the same city i still have much love and respect for the guy. i could write a lot about the fun eugene and i had in college, but i'll save that for another day.

well if you believe that one, do you also believe that i peed all over my dorm room freshman year to "mark my territory"? ;p

[plankton.livejournal.com]

when did you read them?

[cassel.livejournal.com]

1997ish.

I was living around the corner from Tufts on Pearl St.

i bet you're the only non-tufts student to ever read the observer.

all the "name" characters were friends of mine. trent and kay have been together for ~8 years and are for all intents and purposes married. they're a great couple.

Actually, I thought that strip was the only thing worth reading in it!

yeah the O was 2nd rate at best, but students still read it so it was a good way for eugene to get his comic out there. sometimes he'd write movie reviews or editorials. those were funny too - he was either utterly beligerent or totally fanboy.

I've heard that your character pre-dated Kenny from South Park by a few years. Too bad that shit wasn't patented, else you and your friend would be filthy rich.

the whole thing started in 1995, so yeah we were ahead of our time.

the only difference between kenny and plankton is that nobody was saddened or angry when plankton was killed. :(
